I would rather have you wait for the next release than use any of my past releases due to the crash bugs that are in them. My new release has fixed at least 4 zone crash bugs that were really annoying and I wouldn't want anyone using those releases. I'm sure there are copies around if you must have something. Cavedude has the binaries if you just want to play. Check out his Server Pack downloads.
I have completed alpha testing of my latest changes and am on to beta testing. If you would like to help iron out some wrinkles, come over to The Realm and test the current bot code I'm working on.
Changes:
I completely revamped bot creation for starting stats. This will require any existing bots to be run through the #bot update process to get on track. Not doing this will have your caster bots a little confused on spells.
I made bots 'social' such that if one bot has aggro, the others will help it. This makes it so you shouldn't need separate commands to control each group to start attacking. Sending your own group of bots to attack will aggro the rest of the raid. You can still order individual groups onto different targets if you need to.
I added a command to defend against ENRAGE. See #bot raid help. This command will tell your bots to stop attacking. This is effectively a "guard" or "/pet hold" command for the entire raid.
If anyone was working on spell sets for the bots, now would be a good time to get them to me for testing.
